Hi. I’m Mercedes. I have a broken laptop, two kids, a husband and no time to write, although I try my very best. I like to write stories. I like to write poems. I like to write essays and sometimes they’re funny, sometimes they aren’t. I’ve written a few novels, and I’m shopping the last one around.  It’s challenging, and I like it that way. I’m a member of the SFWA, and I also write nonfiction for Shock Totem: Curious Tales of the Macabre and Twisted.  Check us out at www.shocktotem.com.

I know how to throw a tomahawk and I wear red corduroys because they make me happy. That’s also why I write: I like being happy.
